Oh, that is not ideal. A 13% hit is tough. Might be worth calling the states and finding someone to ship it your way. I recommend starting with a place in Oregon and seeing if they can make that happen. 

He'll pay the 13%, regardless.  Doesn't matter from where, as the shipping companies will charge it (and likely duty, plus tax, as well).

Where is the counterbalanced stock "featured" offering?

Has anyone tested the HZRDUS Smoke Black RDX shaft option yet?  Curious to hear feedback on it. 

Yes. I liked it. It is a vast improvement of the previous smoke. Better feel to me. I think they adjusted the stiffness of the butt section so it is a touch softer.

I take your point. I wasn't trying to imply that Canada was specifically being gouged, just that prices of equipment are getting to absurd levels.

 

Also, here the $750 price doesn't include sales tax so, at least in Ontario, you're looking at $847.48 all in. For a driver. 

I feel your pain brother..  Just hoping a stock shaft offering works for me.. 😄 2 more weeks and I'll have a chance to test for myself.  Thanks for sharing the info, 🙂

Spot on.. It would actually cost more once you tack on the brokerage fees of the various shippers.

I saw that as well and chalked it up to an error but you never know...

Likely an error, likely someone will exploit it and get it closed.

I do not understand how the DF, ZF and BF shafts are still not available.

Agreed, I loved the ZF.

[Matt614]

They haven’t updated their shaft book or the online selector for the 2021 options yet so hopefully they become available then.

It isn’t just Titleist but they do offer more shafts than other OEM’a yet do not have the 4th Diamana’s and didn’t add the 5th gen TB.

I noticed a lot of guys fitting into the RDX as well

The Kuro Kage Black DC 50 and AV Blue RAW 55 are both SFW Straight-Flight Weighting which is counterbalanced.

These online dudes crack me up.

i love MN - but 100% all day he hit the TSi2 fairway better l, but yet on looks alone he wouldn’t go with it even though the numbers didn’t lie whatsoever

Is the Tensei White TX actually stiffer than the X or just "higher quality", whatever that means?

I think someone mentioned on here already, but for Mitsubishi, TX tends to just mean better materials (and maybe slightly more stable profile) where other OEM's like Graphite Design the TX is actually a stiffer flex.  For the AV White, the TX actually has higher torque than the X so if it is stiffer, it may not feel like it. Mostly guessing here.

Exactly his shot dispersion was so much better with the tsi2. I actually favor the looks on the tsi2 fairway looks easy to hit from the fairway

I have yet to set them but looks play a huge factor for many people in confidence and playability.  But then he should have hit the tsi3 fairway better....I was surprised at how close the numbers were for him with both drivers and both fairways...

I would favor the tsi3 but I feel I'd hit the tsi2 better from the fairway then I do with my ts3 currently

These drivers look great. However, I just saw the pricing in Canada, which is an eye watering CAD $749.99.

 

Add this to the CAD $65 per dozen they charge for Pro V1s and Titleist has probably done more than any other company to drive up the cost of standard OEM equipment, and I say that as someone who likes their brand. I get that they want to be exclusive, but $750 for a driver is a piss take. 

It's a tough pill to swallow. $750 for the driver + $400 for the shaft that I was fit into is an $1150 punch in the gut.

 

I ordered that shaft today though lol

I have a fitting scheduled for next week and can imagine a similar $ number being wrung up

There's no faking that feel man. Numbers be dammed, that thing feels/looks/sounds perfect.

I feel like most who bought the TSi3 driver have bought the TSi2 wood. Well, I say “bought” but I mean fitter friends of mine.  Several have already been fit by the Titleist rep.  Almost all preferred or had better results with TSi2 woods.

Wowsers. I hope it works for you. After spending that much, be sure to share some pictures here at least. What shaft did you end up with?
